Administrators are experienced and trusted members of Broforce Wiki who have access to certain privileges (such as delete pages, block users, among others) which help with maintenance. They are also useful as moderators in community discussion and interaction.
Users seeking for help can turn to an administrator for advice and information. However, administrators are not a more powerful, neither a distinctive group of users. Content and policy decisions are the responsibility of the entire community.

- Administrators are, however, responsible for addressing disruption on the wiki by other users, including breaches of civility.
- Administrators do not own the site. They cannot shut out the opinions of others.
- Abuse of administrator privileges may result in a removal of user rights after community discussion.
- Administrators must help editing the wiki or reverting vandalism constantly.
